Good Solid Product
At this price it is ideal for a permanent addition to the car boot - just in case it is required later. Good solid product and with a 5 tonne rating will not break.

A towing that seems sturdy enough to do the intended job.
This tow rope comes loose in a clear plastic bag with no documentation, and there's no cable management for when not in use; I've used a Velcro strap I had spare to tie it up.The unit I received measured 4.1cm x 370cm, with a thickness of 0.2-0.25cm; so, not exactly four metres, but close enough.The hooks seem solid and are each made from one piece of steel, but what I didn't like was that the clips to secure them seemed a bit thin and flimsy in comparison; they might be fine in practice, but I'm just going by what I see. I guess it would depend on how you attach this to the tow ring, whether using the hook itself as the main attachment point, or looping the strap around it and then connecting to that instead.Construction of the strap is generally good, and consists of two pieces of nylon-like material stitched together; on the ends it's doubled over on itself and stitched together using a webbed criss-cross pattern for a length of 11cm from each end. For the entire length of the strap, there is a parallel stitch 0.9cm from the edges in a contrast navy blue thread.Overall, it feels like good quality, and you could likely tow a vehicle using this. This says it's rated for five tonnes, but it's probably best to use this within a safe percentage of that limit. As long as the math adds up when you check the manual for your own car and what it can safely tow, as well as the towing weight of the stranded vehicle, you should be fine.I hope to never need this, but I'm glad to have it in the boot just in case. It might also come in handy for non-automotive concerns, if you need to tie something to a fixed point. For Β£10, you could do a lot worse.

Dangerous
Snapped on 2nd use under very low strain. Lucky not to be killed. See photo. Would you like to send a replacement for non-dangerous work or should I contact Amazon? Thanks

A Reliable Lifeline on the Road
I recently ordered this 4 meter, 5 Tonne Tow Rope which is currently priced at Β£9.65 as a just-in-case item for my car. The tow rope is made from high-strength polyester, boasting durability and strength. It felt surprisingly robust for its price. The fabric is tightly woven, and the overall construction appears solid. The accompanying steel hooks are sturdy, with a lock feature that adds an extra layer of safety by preventing the hooks from accidentally disengaging during towing. However, I did notice that the clips on the hooks seemed a bit less substantial compared to the rest of the rope, which could be a concern under heavy strain.Using the rope is straightforward. The length of 4 meters is adequate for most situations, providing enough distance between vehicles without being cumbersome. I appreciated the luminous strip on the rope, enhancing visibility during night-time use β a thoughtful safety feature.π Pros:π οΈ Robust build with high-strength polyester.π Steel hooks with safety locks for secure towing.π Luminous strip for enhanced night visibility.π Adequate length for various towing situations.π° Great value for money.β Cons:π¦ Basic packaging with no storage solution or documentation.π§ Clips on the hooks may feel slightly flimsy.In conclusion, the 4m 5 Tonne Tow Rope Straps offers peace of mind for those unexpected roadside emergencies. Itβs a reliable, affordable option for anyone looking to add a safety accessory to their vehicle. While it has minor shortcomings like basic packaging and slightly underwhelming hook clips, its overall quality and functionality make it a wise choice for drivers. Whether itβs for occasional use or regular towing needs, this tow rope stands ready to handle the task.
